The weather was great. Yun Ye took the whole family to make ridges in the vegetable field! He planted the cultivated pepper seedlings into the ridges. Other families just sow the pepper seeds directly into the ridges. The Yun family was different.
, first catalyze the seeds in the greenhouse, and then transplant them until the seedlings grow. The result of this is that the Yun family's peppers will produce peppers far earlier than others.
Every year during farming, the whole Yun family would go out. This is a rule set by the old lady. The Yun family must know how crops grow from the ground, and no one, male or female, is spared.
Yun Ye knelt down on the wet soil, dug a small hole with a shovel, and carefully planted the seedlings with soil in them. Then he pressed the soil firmly with his hands. Bell followed behind and used a watering can to water the land. The land was very large.
, because the Yun family’s annual consumption of peppers is staggering, so many must be planted to store enough peppers for one year.
Xin Yue was planting on a ridge next to her, and Na Rimu followed impatiently with a watering can. Xin Yue was very picky, and Na Mu would be scolded if she watered too much or too little, so she envied him.
Watching Ling Dang and her husband working tenderly and affectionately, she was the one who wanted to be angry with this evil bitch.
Xiao Wu has never liked farm work. It's not that she looks down on farmers. She rejects all simple and repetitive mechanical work, so she became a supervisor, monitoring Yun Huan and Yun Mu to prevent them from being lazy.
Yun Shou and Li Yanrong were also farming carefully. Li Yanrong couldn't hold the big watering can, so she took a small watering can. Whenever Yun Shou loaded a pepper, she happily watered the seedlings.
Water, there has never been such interesting activities in the palace.
The air was so humid that every time I took a breath, my chest and lungs felt cool. White clouds floated low above my head, and the sapphire-like sky looked extraordinarily distant and vast.
The snow-capped peak of Yushan, surrounded by white clouds, looks particularly mysterious. A heavy snowfall seems to have changed the entire climate in Guanzhong. The fields are full of people, and the sounds of shouting at the cattle can be heard far away, but no one sings.
Yunlu and Yunxiang were running back and forth in the ridges, and the big bows on their heads were already very messy. No one cared about it at this time. The whole year started with spring, and farming was always the top priority at home.
According to the cost-effectiveness ratio, the Yun family's farming is a waste. Today, Xin Yue was supposed to buy an industry that the unlucky Xungui family could not support. The rate of return was higher than farming, but the whole family came after the old woman gave the order.
When I went to plant peppers in the vegetable field, my reply was that the Yun family needed to farm and didn’t have time.
This reason is bigger than the sky. If you take it to the Jinluan Palace, no one will accuse farming. It is no longer a way to make a living. For people in the Central Plains, it is a survival ritual. Today, the emperor and the empress
You also need to farm the land. This is not a ceremony like the emperor helping the plow, but a real day's work on the land in the palace. You don't have a golden hoe to eat scallion pancakes, just like other ordinary people.
This is the lifeblood of a farming nation, integrated into the bones and flesh of every person. It is difficult for a person who doesn’t like to plant something in the ground to believe that he belongs to this great nation.
At noon, the sun gradually became hotter. Yun Ye shook off the sweat on his head and straightened his waist. As the only strong laborer in the family, he had to do a lot. Yun Shou endured the pain in his waist and legs and climbed up.
After getting up, the father and son looked at each other, smiled, and went back to the field to drink water.
The half-year-old child of a farm family is like Yun Shou. He needs to accompany his father to work. The old woman prepared a lot of food in the shed on the edge of the field. The old man has not cooked for many years. Today, he got up before dawn and baked a lot of scallion pancakes and rolled them by himself.
Eating it with shredded potatoes is simply an unparalleled delicacy in the world.
People in Chang'an are not surprised to see Mr. Hou farming. It is not unusual to see the old man with a white beard lying in the field weeding. Xin Yue groaned tiredly while leaning on the blanket. She quickly shut up after being glared at by the old lady. It was difficult.
She picked up a piece of scallion pancake and stuffed it into her mouth. She didn't want to leave the impression of a lazy woman to the old lady.
"Master Marquis, the moisture in your land is very good. The land in the old man's land is not so good. They are all good land. Could it be said that the land of rich people is better than the land of poor people like us?"
The land next door belongs to the rich landlord of the neighboring village. The fat rich man takes care of more than 500 acres of land with his wife, three concubines and six children. Don’t think that the rich landlord does not need to farm. When the animals need to rest, he takes care of his sons.
It's not uncommon to pull a plow and cultivate the fields. We have been neighbors for many years. The fat old man is a nice person.
"Old Shen, come here and have a piece of cake. Our ancestors baked it early in the morning. It tastes very good." Yun Ye asked the fat rich man to come over and have a rest. This is what we should do as a fellow villager.
"Oh, you have to try this. It's rare for our ancestors to cook. Only the lucky ones can eat it." The fat rich man patted the dirt on his hands, took the pancake handed over by Yun Ye, took a big bite, and raised his thumbs up.
.
"Master Hou, the old man has seen with his own eyes the benefits of growing peppers like this in your home. The old man has calculated it! The pepper field here harvests peppers earlier than the pepper field at the old man's home. It's a few days. You also know.
One recipe is eaten everywhere, and it can be sold for a good price for more than ten days in advance.
The old man also wants to set up a greenhouse at home next year. He doesn’t want to plant any exotic flowers and plants, but just peppers. I’ll follow your method of growing peppers. First, grow the pepper seedlings, and then plant them in the fields. Please send someone who knows how to do it.
Come to your home and give me some advice.
The two of them talked lively and talked about mulberry and hemp when they got to the fields. The fat rich man had achieved his goal, so he said goodbye and continued to work in his own fields.
Yun Ye looked at the few seedlings left, then put them all into the basket and continued to plant them. He really liked the feeling of farming now. Although he was a little tired, his heart seemed to be full of crops and became heavy.
There was mist in the fields. It was actually not mist, but light rain. A large cloud floated over, and the light rain fell. This time, even the watering process was omitted. Yun Ye and Yun Shou stood there.
Planting continued in the rainy field. The apricot blossoms and misty rain could not hurt anyone. Li Yanrong wanted to run out of the shed, but Yun Shou drank it back. Yun Ye pursed his lips and snickered. In this crop field, men have grown from generation to generation.
The growth, oh, may also bring some spring rain.
A bit of mist and rain could not hinder the farmers' enthusiasm to continue farming. They didn't use their raincoats. The cattle walked forward with their heads lowered. The calf followed behind the old cow to learn. Wangcai followed the old cow for two rounds and found it boring, so he returned to the clouds.
Beside Ye, his teeth could not bite the tender grass that had just emerged from the ground. He snorted irritably and went to Xiao Wu to ask for the wild vegetables in her basket.
Wild vegetables in early spring eat fat and tender rhizomes. Bitter greens emerge from the ground with two young yellow leaves, and the long rhizomes at the bottom grow fat, tender and juicy. When you get home, take boiling water to wash out the bitter taste.
After mixing the sesame oil, Yun Ye can eat a lot at one time.
Xiao Wu had no choice but to take advantage of his shameless wealth. This guy had now developed a bad habit of pulling on other girls' floral skirts. In order to keep his own skirt, Xiao Wu had to feed it wild vegetables from the basket.
After planting the peppers, Yun Ye began to patrol his own land. Looking at the pepper seedlings in the rain and fog, Yun Ye felt like an emperor inspecting his kingdom at this moment.
In fact, it’s not a bad idea to farm the land for a lifetime. As soon as this idea came up, a fast horse came to the edge of the field, and a palace guard in red loudly reported: “To the general, Your Majesty has an order, ordering the general to enter the palace quickly.
"
There was no time to change clothes. This was Hong Ling's urgent messenger. After calling Wangcai, Yun Ye stepped up and pointed in the direction of Chang'an. Wangcai ran down the street screaming.
Halfway through, I realized that not only was I rushing to Chang'an alone, but the general of the Sixteenth Guards was running on horseback. Like Yun Ye, he was covered in linen and mud. It looked like he had been busy in the fields just now.
"Old Jiang, do you know why His Majesty summoned us in such a hurry?" Wangcai is so fast that he has caught up with Xiaowei's Old Jiang. This guy has always been a well-informed person.
"Lao Yun, I don't know either. I was just ordering beans in the field when I received the summons. I didn't even have time to change my clothes. Damn it, it's best to go to war. I have nothing but farm work to pass the time.
"Who says otherwise? Living in peace for too long is not good for the country. Once the morale of the soldiers relaxes, it will be too difficult to sharpen the energy. The miserable Goryeo escaped. Could it be said that this time
Is this news from Nanzhao? What did Lao Li do in Nanzhao? I can’t bring back even a little Meng Shelong’s head.”
Another fast horse came up, it was Pei Du, the general of the right guard. He was in high spirits and seemed to be full of hope for this emergency summons. As long as a general is a general, no one does not want a war.
There were no guards around the three generals. They rushed into the city gate with fast horses. The city guards had already opened the way with a fast horse in front. At this time, the team of the generals had grown to eighteen people, all of whom were military leaders in the capital.
official.
"It looks like something big has happened, hahaha!" Pei Du laughed loudly and said to the other generals: "Brothers, Pei, I will take the first step. If there is a war, how about you let the younger brothers go?"
After saying this, the war horse under his crotch neighed and immediately ran out. How can such a thing be allowed? Now the Tang army is invincible and invincible. As long as they go into battle, military merit will be firmly in the palm of their hands. Who will let it go?
.
The residents of Chang'an City were puzzled as they watched a dozen war horses roaring past Zhuque Street like a gust of wind - they never thought that there would be any war in the Tang Dynasty. This was ridiculous.
The Suzaku Gate was right in front of them. The guard who guarded the gate opened the gate of the imperial city and signaled to the generals that they could enter directly. Seeing this scene, the faces of this group of people showed a state of ecstasy. This is really fucking true.
